Looking for an ant farm that actually lets a colony thrive? Classic sand ant farms are fun toys, but they are not built to keep a queen and her colony alive for years. A proper ant nest, also called a formicarium, gives your colony stable humidity, dark chambers to raise brood and a clean connection to a separate feeding area.

Our complete range of ant nests is designed and made in-house by antkeepers, for founding queens all the way up to established colonies:

  • Ytong ant nests: porous aerated concrete with natural moisture regulation. Our most popular choice.
  • Plastic ant nests: light, easy to clean and low maintenance, with built-in hydration.
  • All-In-One ant setups: nest, outworld and water reservoir in one ready-to-use ant farm.
  • Wooden ant nests: carved from Java Plum wood for a warm, naturalistic look.

Every nest connects with standard tubing to our outworlds, so you can expand your setup as the colony grows. Not sure where to start? Read our guide on where to buy ant farms and equipment in the USA, check the ant keeping laws in the USA, or pick a beginner species like Lasius niger.

All orders ship from within the United States, so there are no customs fees or import delays.
